Our
Mission
The LZOC encourages
the preservation and restoration of
the Lincoln Automobiles based on the 1936-1948 H-Series V-12 chassis.
 
These include Lincoln-Zephyrs
of 1936-1942, Lincoln V-12's of 1946-1948, Lincoln Customs of 1941-1942,
and Lincoln Continentals of 1940-1948. We
carry out this mission by encouraging our members to exchange information
about their cars, publishing a bi-monthly magazine, The Way of the
Zephyr, holding meets (the "Gathering of the Faithful,"
sometimes referred to as "GOF"), publishing an authenticity
manual, and researching the history of these fine cars.

A Bit of LZOC History...
The
Lincoln-Zephyr Owners Club was
formed in the New England area in 1968 as a national car club. Within
a few years, its membership had grown to some 900 members in the U.S.,
Canada, and several other countries. The
number has gradually increased to around 1,200. The
reason the number remains fairly constant is that the LZOC has never expanded
its field of interest as other clubs have done, and the number of these
cars that survive is finite. Our
single interest - cars based on the HV-12 engine - has helped us avoid
the formation of "factions" within the club.

The
club magazine
was published monthly for the first year and bi-monthly since then.
We
have never missed an issue.
The club has been fortunate in having strong
leadership and direction. In
1989, the first regional
chapter was established,
encouraging more events at the local level and increased participation
by the Faithful.
